I am working with LMX2581 and I have an issue with the lock of the synthesizer
Below is the register information
VTune is 0 or 3V depending on the CP polarity.
Application: Fout: 1.6GHz with best phase noise (lowest noise).
The LMX2581 EVM schematic on page 10 was followed carefully
Any ideas are really wellcome??
